The bread and butter of the Something About series is taking the games it's parodying and turning its main heroes into unstoppable murder machines. It's quite a treat watching them annihalating everything that stands in their way, and often making the villains terrified of them.
In Something About Kirby 64, when Kirbo is beaten trying to defeat 02, Jesus himself shows up, and convinces 02 (or Saul) to become a missionary, and Kirbo baptizes him.
Kirbo fighting HR-H with a Spark/Cutter combo, throwing the robot upwards by the arm and then slicing it in half!
Most of the villains in the Something About series only exist to be utterly brutalized by the heroes. All except Ridley. Yes, he still dies in a few seconds, but he still manages to put up an impressive fight against Samus in Something About Super Metroid. Really shows why he's one of Nintendo's more terrifying and badass villains, and no YouTube parody can change that.
Something About Street Fighter 2 also brings another badass in M. Bison, who simply criples Ryu's leg to leave him defenseless. Impressive, but admittedly less so compared to...
The bonus car. Yep, the car that usually gets the crap beaten out of it is turned into an unstoppable monstrosity that Ryu can barely do anything against.
M. Bison makes an entrance in Something About Street Fighter II with Raúl Juliá's famous Badass Boast from the Street Fighter movie:
In the "Save" ending of Something About Super Metroid, after Samus has crash-landed on Titania after the animals she rescued mutated into monsters that tried to kill her, she's pinned down by the Goras. She tries to shoot it, but her Power Suit has been damaged beyond using its arm cannon. She closes her eyes and resigns herself to death when Slippy turns out to have survived and been living on the planet since his own crash. He carves the limb about to crush Samus away with the armor of the salvaged gun he's wielding and shoots it with lasers to dismember it - blocking an attack with the armor in between shots - before finishing the insectoid lifeform off with a Smart Bomb. Adding to that, Slippy and Samus manage to build a working spaceship out of the functional parts of their respective vehicles and escape Titania together.
From ''Something about The Subspace Emissary," as Mario/Speed Demon is consuming Tabu's soul, Fox aims the guns on the Great Fox at him, only for Luigi to object. Suddenly, an incredibly loud version of Green Hill Zone blasts in the background as all the equipment on the ship shatters. A yellow streak blasts into Mario and well...
What follows is likely the most amazing sequence featured on Something About, as Speedrunner Mario and Super Chili Dogs go head to head, pulling out almost all the stops, for nearly 3 minutes straight. Mind you, Mario had devoured a portion of Tabuu's soul, and Sonic still put him on the defensive for most of the fight even if Mario was still holding back an extreme amount of his power.
Then it's revealed that Sonic used the fight to build up enough speed to jump back in time to stop Mario absorbing Tabuu, and he does, but Mario catches the punch, drops a Badass Boast about how much faster he is than Sonic, and proceeds to beat the crap out of him.
That's when Mario gets Caught Monologuing, allowing Kirby and Luigi to restrain him and successfully exorcise the Speed Demon possessing him.
Geno. Just Geno.
In Something about Donkey Kong Country 2, Donkey Kong is trapped by King K. Rool until the end. Once freed, the Kremlin King is reduced to begging Donkey Kong to not hit him. Needless to say, the great ape isn't interested and K. Rool's left screaming at the fist about hit him with a lot of force before being embedded in the window of his rapidly falling airship.
During The Stinger, K. Rool tries to shoot Diddy and Dixie, only for his gun to fire a few fish. Cue the duo pulling out their firearms, and repeatedly shooting him so hard Crocodile Isle is destroyed.
